With Valentine's Day just a heartbeat away, now is the time to think about those traditional themes of loved ones, property management, and real estate. Well ok, maybe these three topics aren't routinely considered all at the same time, but why shouldn't they be? After loved ones, real estate and homes are things in life that are pretty high up on everyone's priority list - so let's take a 'seasonal' look at how they might be related to each other.
Love yourself with real estate investment A few ways that someone might pamper himself or herself to show a little self-love is to buy a new set of golf clubs, schedule a relaxing massage for those aching muscles, or perhaps go a bit further out on the limb and buy that alluring new new sports car. While all those are wonderful perks to contemplate, none of them - even the car - has the permanence or the deep inner satisfaction that an investment in real estate brings. And even better - the security and the value that real estate returns to you is very much like being loved back. Love your spouse with your real estate investment There might not be a better way in the world to express your love to a spouse than with a real estate investment. Sure, some people might object and suggest diamonds or other jewelry as the supreme expression of caring, but jewelry usually ends up stowed away in a box somewhere, only to be retrieved for special occasions. An investment in a home is something that surrounds your spouse every day with the warmth and depth of your feeling, and for any other kind of property, it still represents a long-lasting commitment to him or her that cannot fail to impress with its own unique permanence. The steamy side of love and real estate You could do the expected and arrange for a fancy date to celebrate Valentine's Day with your spouse or loved one, but you've probably done something like that already, if not many times before. This year, impress him or her with something completely different, and earn major kudos for originality. Why not stay at home this time around and celebrate the day for lovers by discussing some of the red-hot topics of real estate and property management? Try nibbling on your lover's ear while whispering the latest market statistics on average prices and absorption rates. If that doesn't reduce him/her to quivering jello, a candlelit dinner with breathy exchanges on amortization schedules is sure to do the trick. And if these two don't quite provide the spice you'd hoped for, you may have to bring out the heavy artillery. Slip in that video on urban sprawl and tax assessments while giving a slow, sensuous foot massage - it just might be the most memorable Valentine's Day you ever share with your loved one. In the span of a rental property's existence a landlord will probably be asked to make many upgrades to the home for a variety of reasons: personal preferences, safety, pets, rodents, general wear and tear, and many more.
If a handicapped or disabled tenant makes requests for modifications to your rental property, you must permit the modification, provided:
It is important that landlords remember that under federal law, disabled tenants and prospective tenants with a disability have the right to apply and live in a property regardless of their impairment. At Clark Real Estate, we follow all Fair Housing laws and practices to ensure that your rental unit is not in violation. Please contact us for more information. We can handle all tenant issues on your behalf! Clark Real Estate, Investments and Property Management offers a few fun tips for reaching your health, wealth and happiness goals for the New Year by making a few adjustments with your home!
1. Clear the Distractions: Have you ever noticed you get a boost of creativity or physical energy when you go on vacation? What if it's not because of the long day at the beach, but because of the clutter-free hotel room? The beds are made, the floor is clean, none of the usual paperwork is laying around. You're free to think and move about! When you make plans, you can go do it--without tripping over your kid's homework or frantically searching the house for something to wear. What if your home always functioned this way? Start with one distracting room or closet, and rethink it like you're going on vacation: If I was going on a 30 day trip, which items would I need to take with me? Pull those few items, and then move the rest. You can experiment by packing unnecessary items in your suitcase or in a distant closet or the garage to see if life is more enjoyable without the clutter. Or just move the items out of your every day line of sight. If you're feeling extremely bold and are ready for a complete change in your life, donate items to a Shelter or Thrift Store. Continue to go through each room of your home each week or month. The more you clear, the easier it will be--as you'll start to feel the positive effects of a distraction-free home. 2. Live in your Investment: Robert Kiyosaki (Author of Rich Dad, Poor Dad) talks about how your home is a liability, because you're spending more on it than you're making from it. Many Americans assume that because their home may be increasing in value, it's automatically a good investment. Unfortunately, the math doesn't quite work that way! The Reno area is in an exciting growth period, and those who have invested in rental properties are going to be reaching those Wealth Resolutions sooner rather than later. You can turn your home into an investment by finding a way to make money from it. Hrmm, how? If you own your home, you're free to rent out a room, or even your garage as a storage space. Tools like AirBnB allow everyday homeowners to make some extra income from their empty guest room or den. If you're not comfortable with sharing your space, let's schedule a consultation to review the possibilities of purchasing your own income-generating property. If you're renting the home you live in, there may be ways to generate income from it, as well. Please be sure to run any ideas by our office to ensure it is in compliance with your lease agreement! Please feel free to call us when you're debating remodeling projects; we can help determine which projects will return the most value down the road if you choose to sell or rent out your home. 3. Tune In: Take a day to just observe your thoughts and feelings when you wake up, walk through your home, leave the driveway, and return. What parts of your home made you smile? What was frustrating? What can you fix, and what can you let go of? When our homes are in disrepair for extended periods of time, it can negatively affect our day, and wreak havoc on the property. Is there a strange smell in the cupboard? A crack in the wall? A dim light bulb? Let's get those things addressed right away! If you're just feeling resentment toward your home, it might not be a maintenance issue, it might be time to upgrade! We are here to connect the right tenants with the right properties, and the right investors with the right investment properties. If you are feeling unsatisfied with your home, let's talk! We have a growing inventory of options just for you! Clark Real Estate offers Sparks and Reno property management services for landlords and homeowners out of state and out of town.

We use a tried and true formula for qualifying our tenants to ensure they will be residing in our properties for a very long time! Tenants, you know how great you are--we really appreciate you!
Once we have excellent tenants in place, we stick to our agreements. How many times have you signed a contract without reading it? We make sure that our tenants read and agree to the terms of their rental agreement. With everyone on the same page (landlords, tenants and property managers) it's fairly easy to follow the contract when a problem arises. We respond quickly to complaints about noise or criminal activity occurring on or near the property. We want to protect our tenants, your investment, and our inventory! We do this by responding to anything suspicious or overtly dangerous. We respond quickly to any maintenance requests. We offer an easy maintenance request form through our website. We encourage both tenants and landlords to use this form. Requests go directly to our front desk; we then schedule the appropriate appointments with plumbers, electricians, painters or contractors, depending on the maintenance request. Again, we want to protect our tenants, your investment and our inventory--we do this by keeping properties in excellent condition. We coordinate to make repairs easy and unobtrusive to the schedules of our tenants. We keep communication open and easy with our tenants and landlords. Through Facebook, our website, snail mail, and even in our office--we inform the appropriate parties of any upcoming issues related to a rental property or the community. We offer perks, like storage units! We allow pets in some properties. We know that furry friends are a necessity to the happiness of many of our tenants. We respect that and will work with you to find the right pet-friendly home. Our fenced properties with large yards and hardwood floors are certainly some of the first properties to get rented! We look for properties with nearby parks, walking trails and other pet amenities. We are here to serve our customers.
